Washington-Warren Airport sits in Washington, North Carolina. Field elevation is 37.4 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is 5,000 ft. There is no control tower. The field has one ILS approach to runway 05. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,037 ft MSL here.
Washington-Warren Airport has one on-field FBO. Washington-Warren Airport carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. Fuel is available with 24-hour credit card service. For after-hours service, call the airport at (252) 946-3900. The airport is unattended on New Year's Day, Easter, July 4th, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
A few published remarks matter for planning. Deer and birds are on and near the airport. Taxiways are not lighted. Runway 17/35 is unlighted. Runway 05/23 has medium intensity lights preset to low. Use CTAF to raise intensity. That also activates the PAPI and runway end identifier lights on 05 and 23. There is a 120-foot or higher tower on the centerline near the runway 05 threshold. The airport also has displaced threshold and approach slope notes on both ends. Review the current Chart Supplement before arrival. This is a non-towered field with Cherry Point Approach handling clearance delivery.
